Workshop Flooring Advice

Lee - you could try High Performance Setcrete Levelling Compound, sold at Wicks. Flows to a depth of 2-15mm(so won't raise the surface level by much) and will take a heavy load - I was going to put a 300kg Aga on it until I found our floor was level enough. You will also need the Setcrete primer under to make sure it sticks to the concrete.

Just a suggestion,

Clive, It will certainly manage a centre stand in the short term, though I suspect if left over a hot summer, you would develop dents.
If I'm going to be leaving a bike for a planned long time, I tend to just slide a tile offcut under where the centre stand legs will sit.

Side stands don't seem to be a problem, but I do normally have a lump of wood under them, to keep the bike(s) more upright to save space.

My stable consists of Ducati 900GTS, Yamaha XT600, Triumph Bonnie T140, & Guzzi Le Mans3

When it comes to using a hydraulic bike table, I raise it slightly off the ground on four lengths of wood, about 2"x2" or a little larger. This takes the weight off the wheels at one end, and feet at the other, as Guzzi + Bench is quite a lot of weight, but the main reason is that the tiles, whilst fine to walk on, are a bit slippy. The first time I tried running a bike up the ramp, I ended up chasing the workbench across the garage.

At the end of the day, it is a vinyl tile about 3mm thick, so it will never be impervious to dents; on the other hand, it's easy enough to lift one and replace with new.
When I cut them to size, I used a bandsaw, and a small block plane to tidy the edges.
The dovetail edges need tapping down with a hard(ish) rubber mallet.

From what I recall Plasfloor were happy enough to supply a sample.
